- dread of fatal consequences, which may it please God not to realise. " Within the last few days the faction of Basilio re-crosse o d f the Ebro, and that of Gomez approa ched the province Madrid. If these facts were stated to an y one not previously acquainted with the military events of the last two months he would hold them to be false, to be impossible. " Basilio crossed the Ebro at the ford of Argoncillo, which bad already been crossed at ano ther p eriod by Batenero,and which, therefore, ought to hav e been more carefully guarded. T The The column of Bernays proceeded against the rd ac e tious That of column of Azperoz made itself action.ready i n General Manso also A an f . Buren approached the scene of engaged in the pursuit, having under his command all the disposable forces of Old Castile. Could any one who bad seen all this imag ine that Basilio could remain two days in Soria, that Bernays should countermarch to Logrono without king him, or that then the faction should fall upon the a ttacking town of Riaza, and sack it, without impediment, and at its leisure ; that the same scene should be enacted in Sepulveda and Penafiel ; that the faction should then throw into a state of alarm the Court of San Ildefonso and the' city of Vallado lid ; that, passing once again the high road to France, in the direction of the mountains, from which it had come, it should surprise at Aranzo one of our columns, making 300 prisoners, and finally, after having extended at pleasure its excursions on the frontiers of Arragon, it should repass the Ebro by the self same ford, without meeting with any obstacle, carrying with it an immense booty, the fruits of its plunder? Now all this has been done by 1,200 men, who came from Navarre, men of lit tle valour and less discipline, acting at first without the embar rassment of baggage, as men who were going to provide ne cessaries, but shortly after with a convoy of some importance with prisoners to guard, and always with the knowledge that they were pursued by a force five times their strength. " But the result of the expedition of Gallicia is still more astonishing. The faction, having beaten our reserve through the fault of the Generals, entered the Asturias, remained three days in Oviedo, passed from thence into Gallicia, rested forty hours in Santiago, traversed nearly the whole of that kingdom, returned to the principality, come from thence into Old Castile, entered Palencia, Penafiel, Sepulveda, Riaza, plun dering everything, and, leaving the passes on its rear, marched on Siguenza, halted at a few hours distance from Guadalajera —that is to say at thirteen or fourteen hours from the capital; and all these miracles have been performed by a band of about 4,000 men, badly equipped, having in their rear from the mo ment they left the provinces the brave division of Espartero, the troops that could be collected in Old Castile, and those which were in Gallicia. Yet Espartero alone was able to come up with the faction after several weeks' march, when it had to condu c t 100 cars , laden with all descriptions of effects, besides prisoners, fatigued soldiers, and recruits raised in its march."—Eco del Comntercio. The Eco deduces from these facts.the necessity of establish ing a military tribunal in Madrid, for the purpose of judging every officer who may be unfortunate enough to be beaten, and condemning him to the punishment deemed requisite. The Eco, in the course of its observations, makes at least one which is reasonable—that something more is required in an officer than the talent of writing pompous and inflated despatches about absolutely nothing. Extract of a letter from Bayonne of the Bth inst.:—" The Spanish Government refuses formally to deliver passports for foreign countries, and several Proceres, with other important pereonaecs, have been unable to obtain them. General Espar tero, on arriving at Lerma, was attacked by a tit of paralysis, and has been replaced by General Alin. General Oraa has asked for leave of absence to go to a watering place. Private letters state that Mina will not delay taking advantage of the end of the season to resort to the waters of the Pyrenees. According to reports from General Villareal, the Christinos, to the number of 7,000 infantry, and several squadrons of cavalry, advanced on Salvatierra, and passed the night there. On the 3d, at four o'clock in the morning, some detachments advanced upon Zalduendo, and, after having proclaimed the Constitution there, took the road to Vittoria, picking up an other column that had remained at Alegria de Alava. Having arrived at the Venta of Echevarria, they left the high road, in order to avoid the fire of the Carlist artillery from the Castle. of Guevara, and made a great circuit in order to regain the highroad out of the fire of that fortress." A letter from Cadiz of the 30th ult. says,=—" The junta of this province was dissolved last night at twelve o'clock, in con sequence of the arrival of a courier from Madrid with the de cree convoking the Cortes according to the Constitution of 1812. It first addressed a despatch to all the other provincial juntas, announcing that the wishes of the nation being ful filled, it had deemed it proper to dissolve itself. It will ne vertheless continue, in concert with the other juntas of An dalusia, to promote the extraordinary armament and the orga nizltiun of the National Guards. There is, however, a party which very loudly blames this determination. It hopes to in duce the Municipal Council to show a much greater decision than the junta in favour of the revolution, and cause it to con tieue on the exclusive principle of the sovereignty of the peo ple, relying upon the concurrence of the junta'of. Malaga, which is the only one that still holds out, and which, on the 23d of August, sent au ad2rtss to that of Cadiz, urging it to pursue with firmness the path which it had entered." Extract of a letter of the 6th ingant, from Pampelima : "The regiment of Polish Lancers still remains in this town, ith the exception of two squadrons, which arc gone with General Lebeau as an escort. The completion of this regi ment does not make any advance, as, for a long time, not a streele volunteer has arrived from France. It is also in want o horses. These brave men are sadly annoyed at not being in a state Ito go out and meet the enemy, complaining that they did not come into Spain to saunter about the streets, but to enfranchise her from the trammels of absolutism. Colonel Kraiewski endeavours to divert their attention by continual exercises ; but this has the less effect, as a report bras been circulated that the regiment is to be disbanded, the nose Ministry being unwilling to admit of its being made part of the French Legion, as Spain, fr'om want of money to pay her own troops, is unable to pay them. This is a melancholy Trospect for men who are driven to the last resource." RUSSIA. Letters of the 30th ult. from St. Petershurgh state that the Baron de Barante has, in the name of the French Government, demanded an explanation as to the raising of five men out of every thousand, lately ordered by the Emperor Nicholas; am', which, though estimated to produce one hundred thousand soldiers, will in reality produce two hundred thousand. The Count (le Nesselrode has, it is said, replied to the verbal note of the Baron de Barante that this measure had no other object than to fill up the vacancies left in the garrisons of the in terior by the sending of troops to occupy Poland, an occupa tion which was necessary not only for ntctintaining ordcl in that kingdom, but for preserving the tranquillity, of Germany. The letters we have received from St. Petersburg forbid the belief t hat the general levy of recruits, ordered by the Emperor Nlchole.s, is merely intended to fill up vacancies in the ranks of hi; arm . v. His object is to form and re-organize corps of the army, r..nd to provide seamen for the navy, and not to complete battalio as or squadrons. During some months a large por tion of - ,;be disposable forces of Russia has been concentrated in the s yuthern dvpartments, and the corps of the army quar tered in .that part of the empire have been secretly augmented. The ce.rps of Bessarabia, which occasionally detaches troops for the permanent or temporary occupation of the two princi palities,..and has already sent soldiers into Servia, has been doubled since last year, and may now be estimated at upwards of 60,000 men. There are besides in Chcrson, Sebastopol, Nichola ie f, &c., about 20,000 men, ready to be embarked on any mili tarry expedition, independently of corps of naval can noneers.: In the government of Eketerinoslav there are 40,000 more d ?stifled to reinforce the army of the Caucasus, which has bee a .considerably reduced by the war with the Tcherkeses and other insurgents of that country. The corps of Georgia and Persia stand likewise in need of reinforcements, having also occ as ional battles to fight, and suffering almost continually from epidemic diseases. Whatever care the Cabinet of St. Petersbnr gh may take to conceal these losses, wants, and ope rations, and to divert the attention of Europe from such varied occupat ions, and the projects connected therewith, these facts are nev . ei-theless well averred. A levy of 200,000 men will scarcely . suffice for the purposes here referred to. Time, it is true, will be required to effect it, and a much longer period to make sal diers of these recruits ; add to which the financial penury of the Russian exchequer, and it will be evident the oper:;,tion cannot be carried on with the activity desired by the Emper Dr Nicholas. But it is nevertheless true that his ukase should suggest reflection to the optimists, who have been speaking so long and with so much assurance of a general disarm anent. Extr act of a letter from Lemberg, in Galicia, dated the 26th ultimo :_According to recent accounts from Russia, the Emper or Nichola s will not attend the coronation at Prague, but will be represented by the . Archduke Michael. It is probab l x, however, that intervieW will afterwards take place between the two Emperors , bav on the frontier of Galicia, .and Brody, and even Cracow, hav e been named as the place of meeting.

It was agreed that the donation of il the n - cif be published, and that the Society should be undesroul .rona.e of the three Sovereigns who have the Scla thee pa.• b vom aris -under their dominion. The people of Galicia sent a d epu _ t a qion to Prague, to congratulate the Emperor Ferdinand, 4m , 1 resent to him a petition that he would pardon Zaliewski an d Nis four accomplices, who are condemned to five years' i mpr i,; o oment. They were informed by the Governor that the d err uotion could not be received, but that the petition would be pcesented and supported. The troops remain in the environs .of Lemberg, and will, it is said, be reviewed by the Emperor and the Archduke Charles, after which the depu tation will be received. Many petitions will be presented on this occasion, and among them one forthe naturalization of such emigrant Poles as remain in the Austrian empire." , A letter from St. Petersbnr gh announces, that the recruit ment ordained by the last Imperial Decree will commence on the Ist of November, and be concluded by the Ist of January. r:Phe nobles who have men to furnish, are to give 33 roubles c,ach towards their equipment.

It is so.; 41 that Ims guished Bosnian chief, and the Pasha Widaitsch, of Zwornick, have allied themselves to him, and that every thing is ready for a rising .gainst the Porte and its governors. The inhabi habitants of the Kraina are only waiting for the signal to march. This movement is directed against the reform and the civiliza tion which the Sultan is trying to introduce into the states. The Bosnian chiefs, who have before them the example of Servia, wish to render their country independent, that they may govern in a still more arbitrary manner. The Porte will comprehend that it is time to adopt measures which may pre vent it from losing that fine province ; and it must perceive that the troubles of Thessaly, Albania, and Macedonia, are connected with the spirit of resistance in Bosnia. The inte rests of the Christian population of Bosnia and the Herzego vina ought to have made it act more decidedly before ; the sending of an army into that country, and the emancipation of the Christians, would bring:about a change favourable to the Porte ; but for this end the interests of the Christian population should be intrusted to a governor, or to men chosen from that popula tion itself." ITALY. LOMBARDY, END OF AUGUST.—By an Imperial Decree of the 25th August, an amnesty is proclaimed for all subjects of the kingdom who have fled into foreign countries on account of- political offences, on the following conditions :-1. The fugitive who intends to profit by this favour must make an ap plication to that effect, to the Governor of Lombardy, who is specially authorised to execute this decree. The fugitive who will appeal to the amnesty so granted receives the assurances that, so long as he is not accused of offences committed in his own country after his return, he has not to apprehend any in quiry respecting acts of High Treason previously committed. In the written document by which this declaration is communi cated to the families of the fugitives, they are requested to give all possible information respecting the present place of abode of their absent members; the Government being parti cularly desirous to make them acquainted with the favour of fered them, directly through the medium of the Austrian Legations.

THE HAGUE, SEPT. 10.--We learn that the negotiations still continue which have been commenced between the Eng lish and Dutch Governments, respecting the differences that have arisen on the allegations that for a considerable time past too high import duties have been taken on English goods in the island of Java ; in consequence a demand is made that the excess of duties so paid shall be returned to the English mer chants. It is affirmed that the English Ambassador residing here has lately presented to our Government a note, conceived in a very arrogant tone, in which the Ambassador is reported to have delivered, in the name of his Court, that he cannot ac cede to the offer stated to have been made on our part to in demnify the English merchants by the payment of some mil lions (they say six), but that the English Government must insist on an arrangement which it conceives to be more equi table : lastly, that Government is said to have expressed its hope, that by the accession of the Dutch Government to its proposal, this difference may be settled before the opening of Parliament, and the difficulties which this affair has already caused, be removed. We look forward with impatience for the sequel of this important event.—llandenlsblad, Sept. 13. DUTCH FUNDS—ArasTEEDAat, SEPT. 12. Money. Bills.

BRUSSELS, SEPT. 11.—A letter from Frankfort, of Sept. 3d, says. " We learn that the German Diet will convene a new Session on Monday next. The reports that are in circu lation on 'Change would lead us to suppose that the King of Holland had now taken a resolution on the Luxemburg ques tion, the reason of which is said to be that Holland can no longer pay the interest of the enormous debt with which the' country is burdened." BRUSSELS, SEPT. 12.—M. Chrapowizky, aide-de-camp to the Emperor of Russia, is now travelling in Belgium, for 6.2 purpose of viewing the manufactories, public monuments, and Institutions. He was yesterday at the museum, &c. in Brus sels, and seemed much struck With the beauty of that establish ment and the collections which it contained. He expressed to the persons who accompanied him, his surprise at the prosper ous state in which be found Belgium, and at the progress of our several branches of manufacture. When he returns to Russia he may correct many erroneous notions that are enter tained concerning us in that country. The King, accompanied by General Goblets and M. Von Pratt, left Ostend on the 11th, at two o'clock, for Qalais, where he means to embark on Monday for England. His Majesty goes to Claremont to meet the Duchess of Kent and the Princess Victoria. _ _ His Majesty will be back at Ostend on the 19th ; and it is supposed that the Court will leave that place on the 20th cr 21st, to be.present at the fetes of September. We have received information from London, which leads us to believe that the English Government will soon take some steps, if it has not already done so, to induce our Government to make an arrangement with it for giving the same facilities for the exchange of Journals between England and Belgium, as have already been introduced between England and France! HUNGARY AND FRONTIER OF POLAND. BELGRADE, Ato. 20.—We are threatened with plague from the South and the cholera from the North. At Kopicli the plague is raging with extraordinary intensity ; as soon as the disorder appeared, the major part of the inhabitants fled in all directions, and yet the number of deaths at Coprils and Bees- Kindsello is from 30 to 40 daily. About 3,000 thousand Turks and 600 Christians have have already became its vic tims in these two towns, and yet we are just beginning to take some precautions on the frontiers to keep off the disorder. On the Austrian frontier the sanitary regulations are strictly enforced. Tranquillity has prevailed in Bosnia since the last expedi tion of the Austrian troops, and it seems that the lesson given will not be forgotten for some time. There are still some bands of Albanian robbers on the frontiers of Turkey and Greece, and the corps of 8,000 men commended by the Pasha of Laraisson, has not yet been able to deliver the country from the scourge. JASSY, Atn. 20—The beneficent effects of the protection of Russia in Moldavia and Wallachia is most evidently proved by the settlement of the differences between the Boyars and the reigning Prince. Those who are acquainted with the constitution of our province, are aware that without the intervention of a powerful hand, very serious consequences might have ensued from the violent dissensions which had broken out. Whatever may be said in foreign countries of the strict discipline which the Russians maintain, we may confi dently affirm that nothing is so well calculated to establish or der and tranquillity, and consequently the prosperity of the country. Here, as well as in other countries, there is no want of violent persons who would well exchange their present in significance for influence and power, for which end they consi der a revolution to be the best means. The wise and energetic conduct of Russia has saved us from this fortune. The editor of the Allgenzeine Zeitung has lately received ac counts from an authentic source, which represent the com plaints and accusations brought by the Boyars of the opposition party against Prince Stourdza, extending even to his private life, and which have been stated in preceding Numbers of this Journal, to be in part excessively exaggerated, and in part wholly untrue.

MANCHESTER, TUESDAY.—The first musical performance at the Collegiate Church took place this morning. At half-past nine the public was admitted, and from that period up to 11 o'clock, the hour for the commencement, the church rapidly filled. The Duke of Brunswick, the Marquis and Marchioness of Westminster, the Earl of Wilton, Lord De Tabley, and a large assemblage of the gentry connected with the county were present in the patrons' gallery. Precisely at 11 o'clock Sir George Smart gave the signal, and the performances commenced with Attwood's Coronation Anthem, " 0 Lord 1 grant the King a long life," in which the burst of the full orchestra, with the power of the chorus, produced a great impression. Haydn's oratorio of The Crea tion, performed entire, filled up the remainder of the first part. This sublime production was upon the whole finely executed. The wind instruments were particularly true, and the over whelming grandeur of the work was keenly felt. The mag nificent phrase, " God said, let there be light," with the burst of the whole orchestra, vocal and instrumental, was given with amazing force and precision. The charming air, "Now vanish before the holy beams," was nicely sung by Bennett; and the chorus, " Despairing, cursing, rage attends their rapid fall," which it introduces, was marked by much correctness of em- Itasis• The pianos and fortes were carefully observed , and e subdued ,ortions told well in the church.

Letters and Papers from Madrid to the sth instant, have been received. Their contents are interesting, as will be seen from the extracts copied into another part of this Journal. We regret to state that great: difficulties are still in the way of the triumph of the 'Constitutional cause. The QUEEN is reported to be more than usually anxious for her own safety, and that of her august daughter. Don CARLOS has published a procla mation, dated the 2d instant, and addressed to the whole Spanish people, in which he attributes his past suc cess to miracles wrought by Heaven in his favour, as the representative of monkery, legitimacy, and social order. He does not despair, if they make him King, of restoring Spain to its pristine righteousness and glory in four years. In the meantime he appoints the Blessed Virgin and St. Dominick Co-regents of the kingdom, in his name. Brigadier-General LOPEZ is a prisoner in the hands o' GOMEZ. MINA is said to be at the point of death. Cox• DOVA has been deprived of all his honours, and is denounce( a deserter for quitting Spain without leave. The whole of the Paris Journals of Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday, have been received. In consequence of the stormy state of the weather, the French Mails of Sunday and Monday were delayed at Calais till overtaken by those of the following day. They bring intelligence from Madrid to the sth, San Sebastian to the Gth, and Bayonne to the 9th instant. As their contents are more interesting than politically important, we have made considerable extracts from them which will be found under their respective heads, in another part of The Sun. To these extracts we refer our readers for the rumours afloat in Paris respecting the completion of the new Cabinet ; the prospects of political regeneration held out to Spain by the colleagues of Count MOLE ; and a variety of other reports equally well-known and insignificant. The Journal des Debats, which so ably defended the policy of M. TRIERS, while President of the Council, has one of those remarkable periodical articles which are always intended to pave the way for a complete change in its political sentiments. We can always tell when the Debats has sold itself to the faction in power. Before it has dared unblushingly to proclaim its apos tacy, it takes care to regale its readers with a phi losophical dissertation, the burden of which is—that every change in the times requires a corresponding change in the measures adopted by a prudent Government. M. TRIERS cannot and will not think of taxing the writers in the Debats with either inconsistency or ingratitude. It is now well known that he paid well, and in hard cash, for all the services rendered him by that journal ; and it is also well known that his predecessors in office, since the Revolution of 1830, have all done precisely the same thing. The patriotic appeals made to the writers in the Debats must be made through the pocket, and not otherwise. We have not yet forgotten the disclosures of last year respecting the expenditure of the secret servica money. The object of the present article in the _Debuts is to convince the people of France and England that the pre sent French Government is not to be held responsible for adopting a more strictly neutral policy with respect to Spain. Another of its objects is to prove that the policy of France with respect to Spain will undergo no change whatever, al though France may change her army of co-operation into one of mere observation. Why, then, did M. TrirEßs and his colleagues resign ? But we will leave our Galan Contemporary to speak for himself : " The treaty of the Quadruple Alliance is not the least in th e world annulled by the accession of the new Ministry.

The Quadruple Treaty imposed conditions upon England and France, which neither have ceased to observe, with the same end and aim: Their engagements subsist in their full force, and it has been recently allowed that the French Government is still more vigilant in performing its stipulations. Nothing is changed in this respect, and the more Government is compelled to refrain from direct co-opera tion, the more it wiil make it its duty to accomplish the only obligations imposed on it by the Quadruple Alliance." Our only comment upon this passage shall be an extract from a letter dated " Bayonne, September 8," addressed to a Liberal Morning Contemporary, and taken from his columns of this day. We pray our readers, as well as the writers in the Debats, to contrast the respective state - 1 ments "' In a former communication I alluded to the well-received fact that but for the assistance France bas given to the faction in Spain, in supplying it, large menu, with provisions of every description, the whole of the northern provinces of that country would ere this have been in possession of the Christi nos, and the war, through that means, rapidly approached to a conclusion. Being desirous of ascertaining the exact extent to which that assistance was dealt out, I determined upon tra versing that part of the French frontier which, from its vicinity to the Carlist positions, afforded the best means of transmit. ting the supplies. My first visit was to Biobi (a frontier town situated on the banks of the Bidassoa), which I approached from San Jean de Luz. Befere quitting San Jean de Luz, I was struck at observing the number of waggons which every hour passed through that village, all heavily laden with provisions of almost every description. From the moment that I entered upon the Biobi Road, all room for doubt— as to the ultimate destination of the waggons I allude to,—was removed. Having no conception that the French market was opened to the Carlists to such an extent, I was a good deal surprised at this circumstance; but when on approaching the town I found it, as well as the environs, literally crammed with provisions, the open streets being piled with wine, brandy, corn, &c., while the fields were crowded with cattle of all descriptions, my surprise was converted into absolute astonishment. It appears that on the resignation of M. Thiers it was intimated, from some quarter or other, to the principal Carlist agent residing in Paris, that in pursu ance of a strict non-intervention principle it would be neces sary, ere long, to close the frontier of France in regard to the transmission of provisions, whether intended for Carlists or Christinos. This hint was forthwith acted upon by the agent in question, as well as his deputies in the provinces, and the result was the scene which pre sented itself, and still continues to present itself, at Biobi. From the inquiries I have made I believe that, within the last three weeks, provisions for the rations of the Carlist force in the north of Spain, for the next six months, have passed through Biobi. There is not an acre of ground throughout the district of France, south of Bor deaux, which has not contributed its quota, and it has been in variably Frenchmen, and some, I am assured, holding autho rity, who have conducted the purchases. The Christine party not having had the advantage of the intimation given to the Carlist agents, have not taken the same precautions, and, con sequently, the closing of the French market will materially em barrass them. That this is the real object in view, I, for my part, have no doubt. It required not the appointment of Mol6 for Minister to convince me that in the long run the existing Government of Spain would find France, or rather—the King of the French—that worst of foes, a hollow friend. It is to England, and to England alone, that those most interested in Spanish politics, with whom I have had an op portunity of conversing, turn their eyes for assistance. This feeling is daily spreading, and spreading solely from the fact that the French, even while publicly professing intervention, have done all in their power to assist the opponents of the Constitutional cause. Of what avail is it to have all the pomp and circumstances of war enacted at Pau and Tarbes, if at Biobi we find the daily and hourly transmission of provisions to that very camp which we aro told the French Government are so anxious to destroy ? Had the frontier been closed to the Carlisle, as it was understood it would be, and as it was thought it was, there would now be no faction to oppose in Spain. This, and this alone, is the secret of the Carlists' existence ; and I do maintain it is a point on which England, as well as Spain, has good reason to complain. So much for the boasted " vigilance" of the French Go vernment in performing its stipulations! We can barely make room for another brief extract from the article in Labels. Its tone is very different from the articles on the generous sympathy of England, which appeared in that Journal immediately after the accession of the Citizen KING : " The solicitude of the English Journals for our liberties is certainly very laudable. But France itself is first interested in its own liberties, and is in consequence their best guardian. And France knows that neither its honour, nor its constitu tion, nor the guarantees conquered by its revolution, can be in any danger in the hands of a King, when it chooses to defend its liberties, and in the hands of a Cabinet composed of men who always defended those liberties All the absurd phantas magoria of despotism, of holy alliance, of conspiring with absolute Sovereigns against the liberties of the country, vanish before facts ; and it is really too much to ask impartiality or justice from people who cannot see these things as we do." We shall draw our comment upon this extract from the French journals themselves. Hear the Courricr Fkincais description of the new Cabinet : " At to the Ministry of Messrs. Mole and Guizot," it says " we perhap's may be permitted, in conjunction with the Eng lish, to declare that it is Russian in heart; Russian by its an tipathy to European liberty; and, moreover, Russian by the necessities of its position. It durst not indeed admit this ; and in reply to the pressing accusations of the London press, it states the demi-resolutions and demi-measures which it has adopted in order to betray with less barefacedness the cause of the Spanish Constitutionalists." These are the unbought opinions of an honest, indepen dent journal, which has never sold itself to defend the policy of any Government. The Constitutionnel, in refe rence to the article in tile Debats, observes with equal explicitness : " The English journals may reply to the Journal des De bats, that if, as it says, France is the sole judge of the conduct which it is to pursue towards Spain, this amounts to the de claration that there is no longer a Quadruple Alliance. The English journals may insist with reason that the reinforcements prepared for the Foreign Legion were completely within the letter, and still more comprised in the spirit, of the treaty ; that the dissolution of the corps at Pau is the first step to wards that system of absolute neutrality which would allow Carlos to procure arms, provisions, and ammunition in France ; and finally, that the retro-active step of depriving the Queen of svccours, already promised, prepared, and expected, strikes a blow materially and morally against the Constitutional cause, and is calculated greatly to encourage the factious." To these refutations of the doctrine of the Debats, we shall add our own quota as early as we may have an op portunity. We shall only here observe that in binding herself to observe the stipulations of a definite treaty, France voluntarily deprived herself of the right of acting as the sole judge of her own conduct. But tear away the veil, and what do we discover behind this verbiage of the Debats?—The strongest desire on the part of a renegade KING, and an apostate Ministry, to forswear the Quadruple Treaty, and to place DON CARLOS or his son on the Spanish Throne. This is the simple fact, and neither more nor less than the fact. Day after day the Conservatives are dining in all direc tions. It is the only sensible occupation left them in this their hour of affliction, and we wish them much joy of But why talk nonsense over their cups ? Why not let well alone, and enjoy their wine in decorous tranquillity, with. out endangering their digestion by superfluous oratory ? Political phillippics are apt to play strange tricks with the gastric juice, as we perceive by the speech of Earl JER MYN, at a late Suffolk Conservative dinner, who put forth his common-places with a spleen and irritability, evidently the result of a disordered digestion. This bright Peer, among other equally eccentric remarks, talked of the " parricidal axe of self-seeking, but all-else-desolating Re form," in a style, and with an emphasis, that verifies the old adage, that " when the wine is in, the wit is out." A Mr. BEVAN, too, was far from unamusing, though his was a less advanced stage of post-prandial oratory, for he merely praised grandiloquently, " a venerable lady of the olden school ;" and laughed to scorn the Reformers, for daring to assert that kings were fond of power. " Kings fond of power,' indeed," said this sprightly Conserva tive ! And well may the funny fellow ridicule such a supposition ; for who does not know that one-half the miseries of modern Europe have arisen from the exces sive moderation of her monarchs ? What lost us America, but the meek forbearance of GEORGE the Third ? What partitioned Poland, but the utter absence of all thirst for dominion in the person of that chaste monarch, CATHE RINE the Second ? What hurled NAPOLEON from his throne, but his mild and equitable disposition towards Russia ? What brought the troops of NICHOLAS within sight of Constantinople, but the same tolerant qualities in NICK himself ? Mr. BEVAN, you arc right. Kings never have been, and, from the peculiarity of their position, never can be, fond of power. They are the meekest of the meek—most forbearing of the forbearing —a s we see daily in the cases of Louis PHILIPPE and the Holy Alliance, not one member of which but would proclaim " universal suffrage" to-morrow, did he imagine that his subjects would sanction such a dereliction of duty on the part of the " Heaven descended"—as monarchs unqu 3s tionably are—who, it is notorious, combine in their august Ditto Account — Ditto Bongs, 134 29 834 98% Ditto Account 29% 8% 9 French, 5 per cent.......... —f. —c. 4 .

We make no mention of the other speeches delivered at the Suffolk Conservative meeting ; but may to-morrow, perhaps, extract some of their most prominent tit-bits, and class them under one head—namely, " Lies of the Day." We have devoted a large portion of our paper to-day to the publication, in an entire form, of the Marriage and Re gistration Acts. Though these Acts contain some remains of the old leaven of intolerance and church ascendancy, (and they would have contained a great deal more of the same alloy, but for the energy displayed by his Majesty's Minis ters in resisting the claims of bigotry and ecclesiastical domi nation,) we regard them as by far the most valuable that were passed during the late session of Parliament. The Marriage Act, whilst it recognizes the important principle that marriage is a civil contract, enlarges the foundations of religious liberty. It places the Dissenting Minister, as far as the celebration of marriage is concerned, on the same level with the minister of the Established sect, and does away with that, to an upright and truly religious mind, most intolerable of all oppressions, which compelled the believer in:one faith to profess belief in another, as the price of a civil right. This irreligious and immoral practice is now at an end. Nature and conscience assert their inalien able rights—thanks to the manly spirit and persevering efforts of the Dissenters. To that enlightened, enterpris ing, and influential part of the community, we are indebted for this triumph of free and rational principles over the corrupting influences of a state-begotten system of religion The Registration Act emanated from the same source. The want of a general Register of births, deaths, and mar riages, it is true, bore with peculiar hardship upon the Disse nters, because their Registers, where they had any to produce, were not esteemed legal evidence ; but the evil was also se verely felt by the members of the Establishment. Cases were perpetually occurring in our Courts of Law, in which it was found impossible, even after great expense had been incurred, to establish claims to property with any degree of certainty, owing to the imperfect state of the parochial re gisters. To say, nothing, therefore, of the highly important statistical information which an accurate system of registra tion will supply, for the guidance of the legislator and the political economist, it is impossible to deny that the Act in question confers great benefit on those within, as well as on those without, the pale of the Church of England. It has, we are aware, been complained of; as tending to weaken the attachment of the people to the Church ; be cause, if they can get their children registered without bap tism, they will not have them baptised at all—at least by the ministers of the Establishment Those who make this objection seem unconscious of the impiety which lurks at the bottom of it. If baptism be a Christian ordinance can there be a grosser profanation of it than to make its administration rest on any other than religious grounds ? The Church will no doubt lose some of its members—if among its members it reckons profligate persons, who use its rites solely for interested and unworthy purposes— ' but religion and virtue will gain by the change. The offi ciating minister, too, will be relieved from the awful respon sibility attached to a participation in that which cannot be called by a gentler name than a prostitution of religion. In another part of The Sun will be found copies of the Charter of the University of London, and of the charter constituting London University College—as we presume the London University will henceforth be called—a Corpo rate Body. The Charter of the University is framed in a liberal spirit, and seems to us well calculated to promote the important objects contemplated by Lord BROUGHAM, and the other friends of education with whom the noble plan of founding the London University originated. The University of London is, it appears, to consist of a Chancellor, Vice-Chancellor, and Fellows named by the KING. On occasion. of future vacancies the office of Chancellor is to be filled up by Royal appointment ; that of Vice-Chancellor annually from among the Fellows by a ma jority of the votes of that body, and the Fellows themselves are to be appointed from time to time under the sign ma nual. Ample powers are conferred upon the Body thus consti tuted to carry into effect the purposes contemplated by the Charter. These it is unnecessary to specify—the reader will best learn them from the document itself. The point of greatest importance is the extensive range of Educational Institutions which the New University embraces. There is, in fact, no Institution of that kind in the kingdom the pupils of which may not be admitted to its privileges. The London University College and King's College are the only ones mentioned by name in the Charter, but it is provided that pupils bringing certificates, that they have attended the requisite courses at any other seminary which shall have been approved of oy the Secretary of State, on the re commendation of the Senatus Academicus of the University, will be admitted to examination for de grees. This is the distinguishing feature—and a truly noble one it is—of the Metropolitan University. The new system recognises nothing talismanic in a locality. It proceeds on the Catholic and common-sense plan of reward ing literary and scientific merit wherever and however ac quired ; and it puts this merit to the severe test of a search ing examination by men of competent qualifications. Here is a fatal blow levelled at education•monopoly. SHIPPING.-(THIS DAY.) (FROM LLOYD'S.) DEAL, SEPT. 14.—Wind N.N.

JOHN POND, EsQ.—On Wednesday last died at his house, in Greenwich, John Pond, Esq., Fellow of the Royal Society, a corresponding member of the French Insti tute, and an honorary member of most of the astronomical societies in Europe. During a period of nearly twenty-five years Mr. Pond filled the high and important office of Astro nomer-Royal, from which a hopeless state of ill-health obliged him last autumn to retire ; but his regret at quitting a situation in the duties of which he had taken so deep an interest, was lessened on finding himself succeeded by one of the greatest mathematicians of the age, Professor Airy. As a practical astronomer Mr. Pond had no superior ; few, if any, equals. THE FUNDS,(THIS 71)A.Y.)
